I'm posting back to the list so you get the best advice.

I usually kill it w/ a ctrl-c after a while. I'd use -c 1.

This is strange to me. Don't know why it would be like this.

Did you try pinging those sites?
I don't like the first one: nameserver 192.168.2.1 as it has local
address. I suggest putting a # in front to comment it out and retry
pinging google.

I suggest sending it back to the list. We need more tech discussions here.
:) Also, I'm not perfect, I might be missing something.
Do a 'route' and post that as well.
This looks like a nameserver problem. Can you put the ip address into
the www browser and see it? Can you ping an ip address?
Here's google's:
216.239.51.101
If you can use ip addresses, then it's a nameserver. Route should be ok
if you can use ftp. Can you ftp everywhere?
Try to ftp:
ftp.gnu.org
if this doesn't work then try:
199.232.41.9
which is the ip address.
Good luck,
Fred
